Question Changing the partition of hiberfil.sys?

I have a laptop with a full drive, and while the perfect solution would be to stuff a bigger drive in the unit, I don't have the scratch to do it. It's a 30 gigger, and I have a 5 gig D: drive, and a 24 gig C: drive. I have moved the swap file to the D drive, and if I had a reg hack to move the hibernation partition off the C drive, I would move it to the D drive.


Any reg hackers out there that know the key?

Should be able to search the reg with the word hibernation and find it. Use the F3 key to "find next."

right, I can find the entry, however I need to know what to change the data string to. I already know that it has about 4 entries in the registry, 2 of them for Norton.

I have hibernation turned off so I couldn't find anything. In theory, you'd need to find an entry for path or location.
